Absolutely useless

Product Platform: MacOSX

Used Product For: Less than a month

I like and respect those guys from afp548.com but with all due respect, this VaporSec thing is totally useless.

I launched it and it starts making noise as if I was holding down a key on the keyboard for too long overflowing the keystroke buffer. This goes on for about a minute and then it opens a window that says "AppleScript Error". Then next thing that happens is a dialog box that asks me to "enter your admin password".

Well, so what's my admin password then? How do I set the initial password? where is the default password documented?

I checked out the .rtfd manual but it says nothing in this respect.

Sorry, but this is in such a poor state this shouldn't have been released yet.

I rather spend the time setting a VPN tunnel up myself on the commandline, it's time consuming yes, but it won't be a waste of time like this VaporSec thingy.

Absolutely useless - beeble

Admin password: The thing you type in to log in to os x when using your admin account (most people only have an admin account and given the fact that you don't know what this is, I'd bet you do too). This is os x 101. If you don't know what your admin password is given that you need it to log in and to install pretty much anything, then you really shouldn't be playing with VPN yet.
